Could anyone give me some pointers for my macbook hardware upgrade path?

I have a few questions concerning my Macbook Pro 5,1. Firstly, I'd like to purchase a solid state drive to replace my existing 7200 rpm disk, and I'm not sure what interface I should purchase. System profiler lists my SATA controller as a MCP79 AHCI, with a 3 Gigabit link speed. What SATA standard does this correspond to?
Secondly, what is the maximum amount of RAM that my motherboard can work with? I've seen reports of 8gb and of 6gb, so I'm not sure what to think.
Finally, I would like to purchase an Optibay cradle for my existing hard drive, so I could have two disks in my computer at once. Would Apple provide me with service if I request them to install it for me?

MacBook Pros have a SATA interface and use 2.5" notebook drives. Your model can support up to 8 GBs of RAM: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
Apple will not install third-party hardware. You can purchase a DIY kit complete with tools from OWC that allows you to install an SSD in place of the optical drive. They are also an excellent source for RAM and hard drives.

  • Can anyone give me some documents for data cluster

    Hi,
    can anyone give me some documents for data cluster?
    ths!
    regards!

    Hi ,
    The following is a documentation on the <b>Data Cluster</b>:
    <b>Data clusters</b> are specific to ABAP. Although it is possible to read a cluster database using SQL statements, only ABAP can interpret the structure of the data cluster.
    You can store <b>data clusters</b> in special databases in the ABAP Dictionary. These are called ABAP cluster databases, and have a prescribed structure:
    <u><b>Cluster Databases</b></u> ( I have explained the cluster databse below )
    This method allows you to store complex data objects with deep structures in a single step, without having to adjust them to conform to the flat structure of a relational database. Your data objects are then available systemwide to every user. To read these objects from the database successfully, you must know their data types.
    You can use cluster databases to store the results of analyses of data from the relational database. For example, if you want to create a list of your customers with the highest revenue, or an address list from the personnel data of all of your branches, you can write ABAP programs to generate the list and store it as a data cluster. To update the <b>data cluster</b>, you can schedule the program to run periodically as a background job. You can then write other programs that read from the data cluster and work with the results. This method can considerable reduce the response time of your system, since it means that you do not have to access the distributed data in the relational database tables each time you want to look at your list.
    <b>Cluster Database :</b>
                    Cluster databases are special relational databases in the ABAP Dictionary that you can use to store data clusters. Their line structure is divided into a standard section, containing several fields, and one large field for the <b>data cluster.</b>
    <b>Creating a Directory of a Data Cluster</b>
    To create a directory of a data cluster from an ABAP cluster database, use the following statement:
    Syntax
    <b>IMPORT DIRECTORY INTO <dirtab>
                     FROM DATABASE <dbtab>(<ar>)
                     [CLIENT <cli>] ID <key>.</b>
    This creates a directory of the data objects belonging to a data cluster in the database <dbtab> in the internal table <dirtab>. You must declare <dbtab> using a TABLES statement.
    To save a <b>data cluster</b> in a database, use the <b>EXPORT TO DATABASE</b> statement .
    For <ar>, enter the two-character area ID for the cluster in the database. The name <key> identifies the data in the database. Its maximum length depends on the length of the name field in <dbtab>. The CLIENT <cli> option allows you to disable the automatic client handling of a client-specific cluster database, and specify the client yourself. The addition must always come directly after the name of the database.
    The IMPORT statement also reads the contents of the user fields from the database table.
    If the system is able to create a directory, SY-SUBRC is set to 0, otherwise to 4.
    The <b>internal table</b> <dirtab> must have the ABAP Dictionary structure CDIR.
    <b>******** Sample Program illustrating the data cluster .</b>
    PROGRAM Zdata_cluster.

  • Why did i move! anyone give me some advice for get...

    Ok, ill start at the begining, i have had broadband for years, and having been with freeserve, Zen, and most recently sky i decided to move over to BT.
    This was purely because im cancelling sky TV so it didnt make sense to keep broadband with them.
    I have enjoyed speeds the last couple of years of just over 5mbs thanks to all the work zen put in getting my line working wonderfully. When i moved to sky, they changed nothing and this continued.
    I moved to BT on the 24th, and the speed was around 700k, i called and complained and they said my line was in a recovery state and this was standard procedure. In 2 to 3 days time my line would be wonderful.
    I have called a couple of times since then as my line keeps dropping to be told this is normal and the same "recovery state" blurb given to me.
    I understand the line dropping when you move ISP, but i have never had a connection so slow.. its got slower every day since being activated. when its actually up (which is less than its down) i now get speeds <100k at very best.
    I want out, i have agreed a contract, but there not providing a service, i cant even find a number to complain on!!!
    Day 5 of my new internet connection and i get told this recovery state will last 10 days. we use the internet a lot in my house, there are 4 of us who i would say are dependant on it, and what BT are providing is unuseable!
    anyone point me in the right direction for complaints or just getting out now?

    that's the nature of forums - people who come to forums like yourself (and me) came because they were having a problem and were hoping someone on the forum could help.  You don't get people coming to a forum and posting how great there connection is and that applies to all ISPs
    If you want some help/assistance from the forum can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester http://speedtester.bt.com and post the results.
    are you connected to the NTE5 master or test socket or somewhere else? Do you have any phone extension sockets in your home?
    Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

  • Did anyone ever do wedding invitations in pages if so could you give me some info on how to do this

    did anyone ever do wedding invitations in pages if so could you give me some info on how to do this

    Why did you pay for Pages 5? Nearly everyone gets it for free and if you have iWork '09 you can upgrade for free, all 3 apps.
    For the layout of a Wedding Invitation, either buy a set of templates from the Mac App Store or places like Jumsoft, or look for a Word template you like from the Internet and open that in Pages.
    A wedding invitation just consists of text and some graphics on a specified sheet of paper. Usually quality paper you can buy precut and which may be folded to purpose. Just position the text and the graphics where you want on the page, do a few test prints to see if you like it and everything is OK, then reproduce.
    If you want to merge names and addresses from either Contacts or a Numbers spreadsheet, I repeat you can not do this in Pages 5.
    You need Pages '09. You can buy iWork '09 which has Pages, Numbers and Keynote '09 in it for US$26.99 from Amazon.
    Or do it with LibreOffice [free].

  • Give me some ideas for the project.

    Hi,folks
    I am not familiar with programming in web services. Now i have a project related to web services need to finish. I want to someone give me some ideas for the project. how can i implement the access control services. is there anyone can give me some related links for me to learn.
    Project Title: Implementing an access control service
    Project Description:
    Web services are emerging as a new approach to system construction and will make a major impact on the engineering of future business systems. They will allow a move from enterprise to inter-enterprise computing. However, with inter-enterprise computing, there are major problems with providing access to shared data, given that enterprises will not wish to share all data with partners.
    This project aims to investigate this problem by developing a prototype of an access control service that will help decide whether or not data access should be permitted. In essence, companies will outsource their access control to this service and so will not need to maintain their own access control lists for a potentially rapidly changing set of users.
    Suggested Platform: Windows or Linux
    Suggested Languages & Tools: Java

    Well, the approach I've come accross is a central server which is typically accessed indirectly from the web servers (e.g. through SOAP protocol or RMI).
    The remote server sends a user id and a password (or more likely a digest of the password), and receives a session token, basically just a random string of characters which is checked with the central server each time a secure transaction is attempted. The token will be stored in a session object, or perhaps directly in a cookie or in the URLs.
    Active session tokens are stored on the central server for comparison. This means the password doesn't have to be retained in the server.
    It's possible for the session token to be transfered if the user switches from one site to another on the same authentication server.
    Sun distributes one of these beasties, by the way, so you could take a look at their product specs.

    Many many thanks in advance!! 
    Heare is an example, but I don't its function and how does it work..
      read table lt_all_values into ls_value
                               with key answer_id = 'get_value'.
      if sy-subrc = 0.
        data: lt_values type crm_svy_api_string_t.
        append ls_value-value to lt_values.
        call method ir_survey_values->values_set
          exporting

  • Who could you give me some general idea

    hi all
    who could you give me some general idea about that
    developping a web service that may be used for monitoring the performance of the Windows PC on which it runs. The web service will return key performance metrics, such as peak performance,maximum memory, current load, and current available memory. A secondary aim will be to develop a portlet that will provide an interface to the service.
    Tomcat or J2EE web server, JSR-168 compliant portlets, and Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP) should be metioned!
    thanks
    with regards

    First of all, if you want to create a chess board, create a panel with a grid layout. The grid layout will carry the number of rows and columns that you need.
    Second, you will have to set the color of each grid alternatively to black and white.
    After you have done this, your chess bord is ready.
    Now...coming to the mouse events:
    You will have to implement a MouseListener and implelemnt the method mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) attached to the container.
    So when you use the methods getX() and getY() based on the MouseEvent e...
    e.getX(); //Returns the horizontal x co-ordinate
    e.getY();// Returns the horizontal y co-ordinateHope this helps.
